  The SLAB_KASAN flag prevents merging of caches in some configurations,
which is handled in a rather complicated way via kasan_never_merge().
Since we now have a generic SLAB_NO_MERGE flag, we can instead use it
for KASAN caches in addition to SLAB_KASAN in those configurations,
and simplify the SLAB_NEVER_MERGE handling.

Ran a rough test with build and bootup with CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC enabled,
feel free to add

Tested-by: Xiongwei Song <xiongwei.song@windriver.com>

Thanks,

Let's reword this to:

SLAB_KASAN is used to mark caches that are sanitized by KASAN and that
thus have per-object metadata. Currently, this flag is used in
slab_ksize() to account for per-object metadata when calculating the
size of the accessible memory within the object.
